Wrong. Rand Paul is a strict constitutionalist and the most "FOR the PEOPLE" person we have in politics today. He was reading a stupid script for a comedy show pretending to be a media correspondent. You're going to slap him with the "controlled op" label over this nonsense, an interview with a vapid host, while he was actively running AGAINST Trump? Before him and Trump were able to really talk to each other?
Look at all of the meetings Trump and Rand had after Trump won the presidency. Think of all the terrible things Trump said about Rand...oh there really wasn't anyhing of substance was there? I think Trump made fun of Rand's looks. And that was it. Why is that? Because Trump knew who Rand was. Rand may not have known who Trump really was at that time, but Trump knew who Rand was. A patriot. Trump and Rand are basically on the same side, here. They are FOR the people. and against the corruption in government. Rand has MORE than proven himself over the years.
That's an absolutely valid concern and I'm glad that he brought that thought up in people's minds. Was he wrong about Trump in regards to that? Yes. But he was not wrong in bringing up the topic. In the end, Rand and Trump collaborated on many things and got some very good things passed. Rand is a solid patriot.
It's completely constitutional to object to the electoral college. Being a 'strict constitutionalist' isn't an excuse for turning a blind eye to the most corrupt election in history.
Days after President Joe Biden took office and the Democrats took control of the U.S. Senate, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., would not unequivocally say Sunday that the 2020 presidential election was not stolen and called for an investigation of fraud, without providing evidence. "The debate over whether or not there was fraud should occur, we never had any presentation in court where we actually looked at the evidence. Most of the cases were thrown out for lack of standing,** which is a procedural way of not actually hearing the question," Paul said on ABC's "This Week."
While Paul was one of the many Republican politicians who repeated Trump's unfounded allegations of voter fraud, the Kentucky senator did not object to the certification of the Electoral College on Jan. 7 and has said previously that he thinks Congress should not overturn results. "Now, let me say to be clear, I voted to certify the state electors because I think it would be wrong for Congress to overturn that," he said.
Rand is principled and many people hate that about him, because they would rather someone go AGAINST what they believe is the correct interpretation of the law, in order to get a desired result for THEIR side. Rand sticks to what he believes and doesn't bend it or turn his back on it just to give his side a win. That's called integrity. He has said repeatedly that he does not believe it is the role of congress to overturn a state's electoral collage votes. He didn't just conveniently start believing that this year. That's always been his stance.
t's not over. Blaming the good people on our side and attacking them is not the way you "win." However, it is definitely the way the other side wins.
Rand has been one of the most vocal people out there about the integrity of our elections.
Rand Paul endorsed Mitt Romney in 2012 over his own father Ron Paul.
I tried to give him another chance but nope, he flipped on Trump too and put his stamp of approval on the Election Fraud.
Those two things show us that Rand Paul is a coward. I do not really believe that he has principles. I just think he is good at rationalizing his own bullshit. He’s probably being blackmailed.
Rand did not do that (2012) without his father's ok. It was a gamble, and he knew a lot of Ron Paul folks would go against him for doing it. But don't think for a minute that he did it WITHOUT Ron's approval. Ron did not get the nomination, we all know all of the crap that happened to him in 2008 and 2012 and how the media blacked him out and made him out to be a "wacko". You're absolutely entitled to your opinion and I completely understand and respect it. I know a lot of other RP people who still hold that against Rand to this day. I don't. Rand has done a lot of good for our country and he's one of our best fighters. He didn't turn his back on Trump. Not at all. He's one of his biggest allies. We can just agree to disagree on this stuff.

It was for the people to call our side terrorists?
Fuck off with that
